Ramallah, July 10 (SocialNews.XYZ) Dozens of Palestinian protesters were injured in clashes with Israeli soldiers in several West Bank cities and villages, medics and witnesses said.
The clashes broke out on Friday near the village of Beita, south of the West Bank city of Nablus, reports Xinhua news agency.
Israeli soldiers fired live ammunition, rubber bullets and teargas canisters at the protesters, who threw stones at the soldiers, waved Palestinian flags and chanted anti-Israel slogans, said the witnesses.
Medics of the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a statement that at least 83 Palestinians were injured.
